DESCRIPTION

env

my $env = $req->env;
$req    = $req->env({});

Direct access to the CGI or PSGI environment hash if available.

# Check CGI version
my $version = $req->env->{GATEWAY_INTERFACE};

# Check PSGI version
my $version = $req->env->{'psgi.version'};

method

my $method = $req->method;
$req       = $req->method('POST');

HTTP request method, defaults to GET.

url

my $url = $req->url;
$req    = $req->url(Mojo::URL->new);

# Get request information
say $req->url->to_abs->userinfo;
say $req->url->to_abs->host;
say $req->url->to_abs->path;

METHODS

Mojo::Message::Request inherits all methods from Mojo::Message and implements the following new ones.

clone

my $clone = $req->clone;

Clone request if possible, otherwise return undef.

cookies

my $cookies = $req->cookies;
$req        = $req->cookies(Mojo::Cookie::Request->new);
$req        = $req->cookies({name => 'foo', value => 'bar'});

Access request cookies, usually Mojo::Cookie::Request objects.

extract_start_line

my $success = $req->extract_start_line(\$string);

Extract request line from string.

fix_headers

$req = $req->fix_headers;

Make sure request has all required headers.

get_start_line_chunk

my $bytes = $req->get_start_line_chunk($offset);

is_secure

my $success = $req->is_secure;

Check if connection is secure.

is_xhr

my $success = $req->is_xhr;

param

my @names = $req->param;
my $foo   = $req->param('foo');
my @foo   = $req->param('foo');

Access GET and POST parameters. Note that this method caches all data, so it should not be called before the entire request body has been received.

params

my $params = $req->params;

All GET and POST parameters, usually a Mojo::Parameters object. Note that this method caches all data, so it should not be called before the entire request body has been received.

parse

$req = $req->parse('GET /foo/bar HTTP/1.1');
$req = $req->parse(REQUEST_METHOD => 'GET');
$req = $req->parse({REQUEST_METHOD => 'GET'});

Parse HTTP request chunks or environment hash.

proxy

my $proxy = $req->proxy;
$req      = $req->proxy('http://foo:bar@127.0.0.1:3000');
$req      = $req->proxy(Mojo::URL->new('http://127.0.0.1:3000'));

Proxy URL for request.

# Disable proxy
$req->proxy(0);

query_params
